LEVIATHAN LANGLEY POV
"We found her."

"I’ll be there." I ended the call and started the engine again. Para akong nakipagkarerahan sa puso ko habang ang utak ko ay kung saan-saan na lumilipad.
Nang makarating sa headquarters ay agad kong tinakbo ang hallway papunta sa elevator. I feel like the time inside the elevator is so long that it suffocates me. F*ck, kailan pa naging ganito kabagal ang elevator? Kung kailan nagmamadali ay pinapabagal naman ng ibang bagay, lalo na ng oras.

LEVIATHAN LANGLEY POV"It's been three f*cking days, Ark!" Napahilamos ako sa mukha't marahas na pinasadahan ng kamay ang buhok ko. I can also feel my eyes stinging and tears welling up. "What the hell are we waiting for? Hindi natin ito madadaan sa santong dasalan! F*ck! This is a bloodbath! Actions are far more important than words and planning!""Naririnig mo ba ang sarili mo, L?"

A Shroud of Secrecy To be Continued...
The quest for the truth and revealing the mysteries that have entwined all of our lives will go on indefinitely. No matter how hard we fight and how many lives are lost, nothing will change if the words we seek to end this brutal, bloody war come from the ones who are the root of everything. We, Deianeira Madigan and Blake Aeron Dalzell, would not be able to coexist if it weren't for our dark family histories. There will be no conflict between the two organizations if love didn’t prevail.

We are not yet in the thick of the conflict, and we are far from the end; can you still witness the beginning of this long-overdue fi
